These Are The 7 Best Fast-Food Breakfast Sandwiches

Mornings are tough, especially with a family to feed and help to get ready for the day ahead but fast food restaurants offer easy on-the-go options like breakfast sandwiches and bowls. However, knowing the best is hard because so many options are available. Fortunately, a source embarked on a quest to find the best morning option for a hearty and filling meal. Here are 7 of their top choices, starting with number 7.

7. Burger King isn’t King of Breakfast

Although Burger King seems to be one of the most time-efficient of the fast food places, it was also one of the smallest sandwiches. Additionally, the eggs and sausage aren’t as flavored or fluffy as other options.

6. Dunkin’

Companies often fall short when they stray from their renowned specialties. For example, while Dunkin’ is known for its coffee and doughnuts the breakfast sandwich is another example that doesn’t have any unique or sensational flavors. However, it does come with 3 bun options, a croissant, bagel, and English muffin. Therefore, its placement on the list is subjective, depending on what you prioritize in a breakfast sandwich.

5. Not What it Used to Be

Barring the health concerns associated with fast food, particularly McDonald’s, its iconic and classic breakfast sandwich was once a beloved staple in families’ morning routines. However, these days the McMuffin lacks flavor and is overpriced, not to mention easily replicated. Therefore, it’s better to make it at home on a day off, with your preferred ingredients and measurements.

4. Wendy’s Breakfast Sandwich is Basic

Apparently, Wedny’s current breakfast sandwich offerings don’t overshadow the previously mentioned choices. The biscuit, egg, and sausage patty were average and didn’t “stand out” among the other choices.

3. Panera’s Breakfast Sandwich

Panera serves fresh breakfast sandwiches on your choice of ciabatta bread or a brioche bun. However, their sandwich is notably more expensive than the first 2 options. So, while it’s a decently-sized it could be argued that it isn’t worth the money, however delicious it may be.

2. Chick-fil-A

While some might boycott the franchise for some of the beliefs held by the CEO, there’s something about the Chick-fil-A breakfast sandwich that can’t be found in most fast-food chains. Their breakfast sandwich features a biscuit with a “homemade texture and flavor” and was perfectly paired with fluffy eggs and real cheese. The homestyle comfort offered will likely set the day off positively.

1. Starbucks Breakfast Sandwich is On Top

Starbucks is known for its coffee drinks, although some coffee lovers feel they lack something or are too sugary. Either way, it turns out that Starbucks has a delicious breakfast sandwich with sausage, egg, and cheese that “was head and shoulders above the rest.” According to ToH. Purportedly, the sausage in the breakfast sandwich stood out from others because it “was well-seasoned.”

Priorities may Change the Order

These rankings are subjective as some have differing priorities than others. For those who prioritize cost, the larger breakfast sandwiches like Panera’s may be higher. However, many of these breakfast sandwiches can be replicated at home, helping to save even more money. Meanwhile, others may prioritize their health, preferring breakfast sandwiches that are fresh and full of protein but with few to no additives. In this case, the process may be more rigorous when selecting a meal that makes the most sense for your family’s specific needs. In 2021, fast-food chains including, McDonald’s, Burger King, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, and others were tested by a team of researchers at George Washington University. They found that 70-80% of the foods contained phthalates that have been linked with certain cancers and other serious illnesses, noting the highest percentages were found in meat. Meanwhile, the lowest numbers were found in cheese pizza.

Here are a few examples of the toxic chemicals found in some fast food chains:

• Propylene Glycol
• Sodium Nitrite
• Carminic Acid
• Silicon Dioxide
• Ammonium Sulfate
• Dimethylpolysiloxane

On the Bright Side

Although eating fast food may be scary to some, there’s some good news. In addition to being convenient and tasty, fast-food breakfast sandwiches are also likely to be more closely monitored by the FDA following the discoveries made by the team at George Washington University, and a growing popularity around healthy living.
